With Halloween Fast Approaching…

Halloween is almost here… and it makes me think back to last year. Samantha’s first Halloween. I had so much fun dressing her up and making her look cute, which wasn’t hard at all considering how adorable she always is! So I thought I would share some pictures. Or a lot of pictures. Because as I was flipping through the pictures from last year, I couldn’t stop tagging them as pictures to include in my blog post.

 

 

 

 

I mean, how cute it this? She made an adorable little bumblebee. And she was so full of smiles and giggles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And what about this cutie? My niece was a cute little lady bug!

Samantha had her own little pumpkin that she was pretty attached to. She didn’t want to let that thing go at any time! And look at those baby blues!

She was a little poser and made the cutest facial expressions. My daughter definitely has a personality of her own! That’s for sure!

 

 

 

 

I think this one is one of my favorites. She looks so happy and excited.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Because look what she was getting!!!

And then we tried a few hats… excuse her looking like a boy… with her blue bib and bald head!

Where did Samantha go!?

Well, that’s all folks!

At least until we get some stuff from this year to share!

Coming to you soon… Halloween 2010 Festivities!

Samantha’s Room Is Finished!

Well.. almost.

So here are some pictures and I’ll show you what I’ve done!

I finally finished this. It will be hung above her dresser soon, but for now it’s hanging OVER an Elmo picture. Oh well. At least it’s DONE!

Dustin made this shelf (when the room is re-arranged it will be above the dresser)

And then this is the rest of the room! Enjoy!

her closet is still pretty messy. But it’s much better than before!

I added in a bookshelf for her books…

 

This cute blue netting scared her i think, so we took it down before bed last night.

And this is where we hung up her hair clip holder and also a picture that used to be where the new shelf is. We will find permanent homes for these things soon!

 

I hope you enjoyed seeing a tour of Samanthas room!

Monday Blog Hops!

Question of the Week: Will you be dressing up for Halloween this year? If not, when were the last time you dressed up, and what did you dress up as.
I will not be dressing up this year, but my daughter is! She is dressing up as Cinderella. I can't even remember the last time I dressed up for Halloween!

More baby news

Thats right! More baby news! I had another ultrasound this morning, so I thought I would share some of the news with all of you!

Baby boy is measuring right on track in the 50th percentile for weight at a whopping 1 pound, 6 ounces! I'm 24 weeks, 1 day along and baby is looking great!
Here are a few images for you to admire with me :-)

Here, you can see baby boy sucking his thumb. I love it.


And here is baby boys foot!


I can't wait to share more details as the pregnancy goes on, but for now I'll leave you with these images and this statement. That foot is tiny... but it can do a lot of damage! I am feeling baby boy kick and move so much now and it's getting to be more frequent in the evenings at bed time! This little one is a night owl!

Happy Friday everyone!

Blog Hops!

This blog hop sounds like fun!


This may not be to the day, but it was in October, before Halloween last year. Trying on her cute little bumblebee costume!

Sunday morning Dustin and I woke up later than usual, courtesy of my parents for keeping Samantha for a sleepover. We woke up, and got ready to go for the day. We were heading to.... the PUMPKIN FARM!

We met my parents, sister, niece and Samantha at the pumpkin farm around 11am.
And we headed around to see all the gorgeous fall colors and the beautiful pumpkins!
So enjoy the pictures coming your way!

This was before the pumpkin farm... at breakfast time at gramma and papas house. My silly girl!


Gotta get that shot of the kids sitting in the pumpkins!




And then we headed over the the character stands. the girls loved them!
Look! It's Oscar and Grover!

and cookie monster!

But then it was family picture time!




And then we found these:



And a sweet end to the perfect day...
